Processing and Packaging Solutions from ProMach
Batch Retorting, Cooking, and Sterilizing
Allpax and Stock, key players in ProMach’s brand portfolio, are industry leaders in batch retorting solutions for wet pet food. With FDA and USDA-compliant control software, Allpax retorts are lauded for their versatility, high throughput, and reliability. This not only ensures a lower total cost of ownership but also helps manufacturers maintain high production goals. The industry-wide adoption of Allpax’s process logging software is a testament to its effectiveness and reliability in ensuring quality sterilization processes.
Can Filling and Seaming
The acquisition of Zacmi has significantly bolstered ProMach’s capabilities in the can filling and seaming segment. Zacmi is renowned among the most respected suppliers of filling, closing, and sterilization equipment specifically designed for the pet food industry. Their expertise in creating seamless solutions for metal cans further enhances ProMach’s ability to cater to the comprehensive needs of pet food manufacturers.
Flexibles
When it comes to dry kibble and treats, packaging your product into a variety of bag styles and sizes can be one of the most important aspects of your packaging line. ProMach’s Matrix and Bartelt have emerged as market leaders in vertical form fill and seal technology, enabling a wide array of bag and pouch styles. From large pillow bags to flat bottom bags with pre-applied zippers and gusseted pre-made pouches, their solutions address the industry’s need for flexible, reliable, and aesthetically pleasing packaging options.

In the competitive pet food market, product packaging’s visual appeal and information clarity are crucial. ProMach’s decorative labeling from P.E. Labellers and labeling and coding brands such as ID Technology deliver expert solutions that allow manufacturers to optimize the efficiency of their packaging lines while ensuring their products stand out on the shelves. With capabilities ranging from flexible package labeling to secondary packaging and pallet labeling, ProMach ensures that every product not only looks appealing but also carries precise date coding and essential information.
